1. It's good that the police protected the embassy.

Those protesters need to understand that there is something on Youtube to offend everyone and they need to get over it.

2. Finally just watched the thing... wow lol...

I'm quite certain material have been made in recent years that are much more "anti-Islam" that this film. The dubbing in of Islam-related discourse if hilarious.

I think the guy that plays "Unknown Father/Muhammed" is pretty attractive.
